… during a windless watch.
During my watch, at about 0520 i felt that wind is coming. 5 – 6 KN of wind I saw at the wind meter. After checking direction, pulled the genoa out fully and opened it more, using the barber hauler. While i wanted to trim the wind angle the wind got lost. The bl….. monkey with the tin tool stole it again. So I furled the genoa again and buried my dream of sailing across the 5th latitude S.
I used the time, made water, did laundry, and made a pot of coffee (mainly for our coffee monster) a pot of Earl Grey (mainly for our cookie monster) and a pot of mint tea (mainly for our xxx monster). Currently I’m waiting for the washing machine to finish it’s program.
So far about early morning activities on board of MaRe on her way to the Gambier Islands during a windless morning.
What will the day bring us?
